Jamaican singer-songwriter on the rise, Mortimer, reveals the highly anticipated music video for his single “In My Time” featuring the GRAMMY-winning reggae legend Damian “Jr. Gong” Marley. Directed by Pete Beng, the haunting visual offers a stark portrayal of how we are programmed through technology and our societal disillusionment, exploring the deep-rooted corruption, fear, and power dynamics that shape the human experience. The track appears on From Within, Mortimer’s debut album that delves into themes of personal and societal awakening.
“I started writing this song after feeling overwhelmed by the state of humanity—the trickery, injustice, and hypocrisy,” Mortimer reflects. “I realized that fear was being used to manipulate us, with self-appointed ‘gods’ seeking to destroy the very fabric of our existence. This song is a reflection of everything that’s broken in the world… and yet, it carries a message of emotional truth.”
Mortimer and Marley’s lyrics capture the emotional unrest of our time, addressing systemic injustices, environmental degradation, and moral decay. Together, they create a powerful call for introspection, grappling with both hope and despair.
